Yousendit.com is a great resource for sharing large files.

Alternatively, if somebody can put it up on an FTP site somewhere, that'd be great too.

if someone wanted me to burn it on cd i wouldnt mind doing it. snail mail is slow though. i think someone hosting it would be better for everyone.

Thanks for the link, I'll probably order one.

Looks like copyright laws don't apply in "cyber-wares" world.

I am all for giving someone a torque spec, or a copy of an old manual, but ebaying brand new factory manuals for profit seems like a shady business to support.

Is this manual the full thing that the dealers would have?  I was skeptic about purchasing it  not knowing if it had all that we would need in a manual.  If someone could host the file, that would be great.  I would rather spend $15 towards a new sprocket.  As far as someone getting rich of the ebaying of a manual, it seems like it only takes one person to post it before others find out how to get it for free. 

Also, what is the SVG format.  Do you have to access the manual through your browser or another program?

[Takster]

SVG is a scalable vector graphics format.

I'm interested.  Sure would make it easier to do some of my own mods.

Got a copy.  The service manual part seems to work just fine, lots of good info.  The spare parts section does not seem to work but it may be a Mac thing, I'll be troubleshooting that later.

I've got a pdf file of the 696 parts lists, it includes exploded views of everything...

It's yours, if you want.

This is what bittorrent was made for.

Great manual, has every thing you ever needed to know, well about the 696, didn't tell me who shot Kennedy.

I have started my rebuild, must fun, till the snow is gone.

Bring on global warming, melt that snow!!!!!

Wasn't there a site that hosted big files? It had the pdf of all the DMFer's bike pics. Maybe we could post it there.

Causeofkaos, are you in the states? If we don't find somewhere to host it, I'd like to get one from you, on CD. I'll split the purchase cost with ya.
